My response to your complaint is that you and the people in your
department should not feel that you must eat the specials that are offered
on TUE and THUR. And after all since Sophie's regular menue offers a wide
variety, I'm sure you can find other items to your liking.

I HAVE SEEM SOME OF YOUR RECENT REVEIWS OF THE LUNCH BEING OFFER BY AL,
I AM SURE YOU ENJOY THE FOOD BEING SERVED; BUT I THINK YOU SHOULD KNOW THAT
MOST ATARI EMPLOYEE'S DO NOT SHARE YOUR VEIWS. I HAVE  COMPLAINS FROM MY 
DEPARTMENT REGARDING THE SERVING OF FOOD FROM IRAN,AND WELL AS YOUR REVEIWS.

I THINK IT GREAT THAT SOME OF OUR EMPLOYEE'S ARE ENJOYING THIS RECENT CHANGE
IN THE MENU

Obviously Farrokh has decided to share our personal conversation concerning
the cafeteria's serving of Iranian food on Tuesdays and Thursdays.  I've 
received complaints from people in the adminstrative area as well as 
accounting about the outside customers using our subsidized facility
for their benefit.  In addition I have received complaints concerning the
food in general.  I would be interested to find out what vaxland 
users true feelings are in regards to the Tuesday and Thursday specials
and outsiders using our cafeteria.  I encourage Farrokh to also respond.

I patronized the cafeteria regularly until about two or three years ago
when they were infested by ants and showed no interest in getting rid
of the little buggers. I have not eaten there since then.

I do occasionally purchase soft drinks from the machine in the front of
the building. Unfortunately, the selections can be empty for days at a
time. I avoid drinks with caffeine and the machine up front is the only one
stocked with Sprite. None of the machines are stocked with 7-UP.

I don't particularly mind Farrokh's menu messages. For worse are the insipid
mesages concerning the Atari Survivor's Baseball Team. Since both of these
have taken the form of continuing operations I suggest that mail distribution
lists be created for those interested in receiving mail of that nature.

I don't know Rick Thompson decided that MOST of the rest of us don't like 
the Tues and Thurs specials, but he sure didn't ask me.  I'm happy to try
something different instead of that ol' burger a day.  So far, I've only 
been able to try the Iranian special a few times, and it has been good each
time.  

Usually, when I get to the lunch room (about 12:30), the Iranian special is 
all gone.  SOMEBODY must be eating it or it wouldn't sell.  I'm sure Rick
doesn't like it, but that doesn't mean we all hate it.

Perhaps you should get out more if the lunch special offends you.  They do
have other items on the menu, and there is a whole range of food in the general
vicinity.

Who has a tape of last night's "Twin Peaks"? Please write..



P.S. On another subject: If anyone wants to know our opinions on the
food service, they might refer to all the questionaires we have already
completed on that subject.
